Can't see us being after Fasolo or Fasolo being after Carlton.

Can see Fasolo being a target to a team like Geelong or even North who think they're a finals team and could do with a goal scoring forward.

How much of Lloyd's good work is ability, and how much is system?

Is he the kind of leader who can come across and help our backline function, or will he be regularly exposed because the things he can do at Sydney get punished when he tries to do them with us?

I want him, for sure...but I'm uncertain about whether his form can transcend clubs.

A half back line of Lloyd, Marchbank, Docherty would be more than handy.
Add in Mr Tom Williamson for some rebound and the back half is well improved, including Marchbank’s addition from this 1/4 baked season.

Hopefully the Agresta conduit is working on J.Lloyd.

I really hope we throw money at guys who aren't currently getting enough games.
Just maybe there is hope :)

Fasolo probably isn't high on the shopping list or players.
He is a clever player however with good skills and makes opportunities out of not much.

Certainly not a hack but our medical staff would have him cremated in a fortnight.
He could come to us and have an “interrupted pre season”.

Thats casting a pretty wide net Plow.
(But I tend to agree)
It will seem odd, given how many defenders we have, but even a key position defender would help.

Injuries seem to have finished Silvagni, Rowe is not AFL standard when the ball hits the ground, Jones limited in what role he can play.

I think Fasolo would be someone to look at. Kicks goals.
Costs us nothing and he has the promise of game time if he stays fit. Definitely has the experience and more nous than other small forward prospects we have. Could replace Wright for a start and LeBois looks like a miss at this stage. Even if he plays VFL he will help the side. No brainer for me. Only 26, played 19 games last year. Maybe he'll get himself right like Ahern for North this year?
